This makes it now even more and more important to trust only open source wallets,,, and also as much as possible all the Ledgers and Trezors you ever bought, if you used your personal details you can be sure their databases are not only now vulnerable to hacker attacks (as we have already seen happen) but also to government requests.
I wouldn't worry too much about it at this point because if you think about it, the government probably has all the information needed to control and spy on you already, even before your introduction to cryptocurrency so no point worrying, they won't probably go rogue suddenly if you are living in a first world country.
